SDCC Exclusives Available at FanExpo!
« on: August 19, 2010, 09:43:05 AM »
Hasbro has just sent word that one of their distributors is setting up at FanExpo in Toronto the weekend of August 27th.

So if you couldn't make SDCC and didn't get to grab them off of Hasbro Toy Shop, this is your chance!

I've requested info on pricing and availability, and will append that info to this post once it comes in.

*edit 1 - I've been informed that they have 500 on hand for this. I don't know the breakdown between how many of each variant (or if it is just one or the other)*



*edit 2 - Here's a list of items they will have on hand:

Transformers Autobot Blaster

GI Joe 3.75” Sgt Slaughter Figure

Marvel 3.75” Thor Figure

Marvel 3.75” Captain America Figure

Marvel Master Works Galactus

Marvel Iron Man Mighty Muggs

Marvel 3.75” Spider-man Figure

Star Wars Expanded Universe 2 Pack Darth Maul and Owen Lars

Star Wars Comic 2 Pack Camie and Fixer (from Celebration)

Star Wars 2 Pack 4-Lom and Zuckuss*


*edit3 - Hasbro has confirmed that there were be BOTH versions available, however the quantity split (how many of each one) is unknown.*

Unless Hasbro is lying, they are sold out. ie: Web site out of stock.

Sold out in regards to what HTS had available. If these were set aside pre-SDCC for this purpose, then that's not really a lie.

Did they say they would have Sgt. Slaughters? As they have tons of the Marvel, Transformers and Star Wars exclusives from SDCC to sell.

Another site has reported that Sarge will be available Spring 2011 at retail - just not as single carded figures.

I just received my mail-away USA Sarge today.  Very nice.

MAY be available. Not WILL.

I've posted the actual letter from Hasbro about this here:

Does anyone roughly know how much they will cost?  A woman from my work is going on Sat. and said she would try to get one for me!

Also, will they have limits on how many you can buy?

Thanks
